Privacy & Terms
Privacy & Terms
These policies help explain how GatherPoint works as a trusted community event platform.
Quick Summary
GatherPoint is built for local, wholesome community events. Members should be honest, respectful, and careful when creating events, requesting RSVPs, messaging, or meeting in person.
Privacy Policy
Your account and profile
Your email, how you sign in (email, Google, or Apple), and the profile you fill in: name, photo, city, bio, interests, ward and stake, and date of birth. Your birth date is used to confirm you are 18 or older and to show hosts an age range; hosts never see the date itself.
Phone and ID checks
To confirm your phone, your number is sent to Twilio, which texts you a code. GatherPoint keeps only the last four digits and a scrambled copy used to stop one number from being used on several accounts. Photo ID checks are run by Stripe Identity; GatherPoint keeps only the result (verified or not, and whether you are 18 or older), never your ID images.
Events and location
Events you host, including their address. When a host hides the exact address, guests see only a general area until they are approved. GatherPoint does not use your device's location; your city is whatever you type.
RSVPs, messages, and attendance
Your requests to join events and any note to the host, messages you send and receive, and whether a host marked you as having come to an event. When you ask to join, the host sees your name, photo, age range, city, ward, verification status, and how many events you came to. Never your email, phone number, or address.
Payments
Paid plans and Event Boosts are processed by Stripe. GatherPoint stores your Stripe customer and subscription references and what you bought, never your card number.
Safety records
Reports, blocks, and moderation actions, used to keep the community safe.
How GatherPoint uses the app
How you found GatherPoint (for example a shared event link, or your answer to "How did you hear about us?"), when you last opened the app, which features members use, which plans and paid features they look at, and short answers to optional questions like "why not upgrade?", so we can tell what is worth building. Event details are sent to an AI image service when a host asks GatherPoint to create a cover photo. There are no advertising trackers, and GatherPoint does not sell your information.
Companies that handle your information for us
- Base44 hosts the app and stores its data, and creates AI cover photos.
- Twilio sends phone confirmation codes.
- Stripe takes payments and runs photo ID checks.
- Google and Apple only if you choose to sign in with them.
Your information is kept while your account is open. You can see and change your profile at any time, and delete your account and its data from the Account page. GatherPoint is for adults 18 and older and does not knowingly collect information from anyone younger.

Terms of Service
18+ Eligibility
GatherPoint is intended for adults. Users are responsible for providing accurate information during registration and onboarding.
User Responsibility
Users are responsible for their profiles, messages, RSVP behavior, event attendance, and interactions with other members.
Host Responsibility
Hosts are responsible for posting honest event information, reviewing RSVP requests responsibly, communicating clearly, and following GatherPoint safety expectations. Each gathering should have one listing: listing the same event more than once, for example to get around guest limits, may lead to the extra listings being removed.
Community Standards
Harassment, abusive behavior, fake profiles, misleading events, spam, scams, inappropriate content, and unsafe behavior are not allowed.
Moderation
GatherPoint may review reports, remove content, limit features, suspend accounts, or remove accounts when needed to protect the community.
Community-Organized Events
Events are organized by community members. GatherPoint does not guarantee event safety, attendance, transportation, supervision, or outcomes.
Account Deletion Policy
Members can delete their account at any time from their Account page. Deletion happens right away: it cancels any paid plan, cancels upcoming events the member hosts (guests are told), and removes their profile, RSVPs, messages, blocks, and phone and ID check records. GatherPoint may need to retain limited safety, moderation, legal, or transaction-related records when required to protect users, prevent abuse, or comply with applicable obligations.
